Abstract

1. Now a days, it is the most common disorder in female patients. 2. Various reports suggest that 30 to 50% of women in the reproductive age group suffer from excessive and irregular uterine bleeding by various causative factors. 3. Women are increasingly unwilling to accept menstrual difficulties. There has been a rise in expectations, and increasing intolerance of the inconvenience of excessive bleeding. Also, the role of women in society has changed making it more difficult to give attention with this problem. That is why its worldwide incidence may be as high as 19 % of women of reproductive age. 4. Heavy uterine bleeding is managed with medical therapy with associated side effects, and if unsuccessful is followed by surgical intervention. Dilatation and curettage is at best temporary treatment with limited efficacy. Hysterectomy and uterine thermal ballon therapy also other alternative therapy but not so useful. 5. The line of treatment that can be given at O.P.D. level, very easy to administer and be very effective without any side effect, is yet to be established.
